Things sure have been crazy lately with my pets and I.
For those of you who didn't see my last post about losing a snake, here it is

So today I noticed the dreaded popping sound coming from my Sinaloan milksnake, Max while I was cleaning tanks. No mucus, but definite popping. Upset, I washed my hands and moved to the next tank, my Rosy boa Athena. I'm not sure if I was being paranoid or not but I think I heard small popping noises from her too.
So naturally I'm freaked out and call the local reptile vet. I decide it would be best to bring in all my animals and have them evaluated because I'm tired of wondering which of them has it and which doesn't. I have 3 snakes, a bearded dragon and a leopard gecko. $85 per pet, no exceptions. That's a total of $425 which I definitely don't have right now.
I'm feeling pretty discouraged and seriously considering adopting out a few animals... I love them all to death but when something like this happens and I can't afford to make sure they're all healthy, it makes me think I probably shouldn't have so many.
Is there a medicine that I can buy to treat RI at home? Something that vets use? If anyone has knowledge or experience with this I would greatly appreciate it. Also, if anyone is interested in adopting/rescuing a Sinaloan milksnake, please let me know/pm me for more details.
